I agree with the previous post, get rid of the PLP. That just takes too much time and it's boring.

I honestly do not get the fascination with putting another so called major in the US right now. If anything, they should have put it in Canada or even Mexico, just to stir the pot and to get an idea of how a pro level pool tournament can be in those countries.

Of course, Asia is the pot of gold and I'm sure they will hope for a turnout like the Hanoi open in the Philippines.

Your not alone and people definitely FEEL bad strokes. You can tell because they look like they are skewering a sausage right after CB contact.

So, why do so many people say "a good stroke feels like nothing"?

Curious, how often do you see your local players with a really good, and solid Pre shot routine?

And, when you do, are they often fairly consistently strong players?

Speaking for myself, and I admit, it has just been laziness, I have never cared to try to learn a Pre shot routine, and therefore, I have never felt really comfortable while down on any shot.

CJ Wiley was talking about the placement of your feet being the most important thing in the Pre shot routine.

When I was a kid, everything felt perfect, with out even thinking about it, but now, after not playing nearly as often as I used to, everything feels wrong, and very uncomfortable.

I really miss playing, but I think I would get a lot more enjoyment out of the game, if I could get a good, and consistent Pre shot routine.

Curious if anyone knows of any good videos online, that explain really well about the way the feet are supposed to be placed, among other good tips?

Thanks.

as you adapt and make your so called routine mindless. i bet mine is the same place every time i take a shot. i just dont follow a set way of doing it.
but ive practiced just putting my cue down and just poking immediately forward at the cue ball.

i make all but the the longest or tough shots of which i am close anyway. so the straight stroke no back and forth needed is the real key after i guess you are in position. its a good test to see if you are lined up and have a stroke that is repeatable.
this shows after playing for a time you automatically get in line for the shot. at least for me.

Shoe or boot last.

Do you know what a last is? It's not an orthotic insert. It is what is used by a cobbler to make a shoe or boot.

I'm amazed by some snooker pros who have their "back" foot either even with or in front of their "front" foot.
